Reseña del libro "Lifespan Development (en Inglés)"
How does context impact human growth and development? Do the places, sociocultural environments, and ways in which we are raised influence who we become and how we grow and change throughout our lives? Lifespan Development: Lives in Context, Fourth Edition helps students discover the answers. Taking a chronological approach, the book follows three core themes: the centrality of context, the importance of research, and the applied value of developmental science. Author Tara L. Kuther′s narrative covers current and classic studies and foundational theories while exploring real-world connections and culturally diverse perspectives.
